What if each of us is born with a determined amount of effort?
what if there's only so much
Can do attitude
to be had?
For the first time in years I might be ready to really try.
to make promises I don't dismiss out of hand.
If tomorrow is the same as yesterday I won't admit defeat.
but there's a chance I might want the day after to be different.
Maybe growing up has nothing to do with the pages on the calendar.
maybe it took me ages to accept that the only person to please is myself.
I'm really good at being in school, because I like being told what to do.
Setting deadlines for myself.
this is all that's left of us.
